Chapter 1: What is the theme of this bonus episode?
This is a Global Player original podcast.
Hello and welcome to the bonus episode of My Therapist Ghosted Me.
My Therapist Ghosted Me.
M-T-G-M.
Pod. At gmail.com. We really didn't think of the length of the name when we named the podcast. We didn't.
Well, we didn't think anything was going to, but we thought we were going in for a little jolly to have a little chat once or twice and then that was going to be it. We weren't really considering we were going to still be doing this three years down the line.
I know. We should have a party.
We had a party. Remember the party?
That's Christmas. That's totally different.

Chapter 2: What strange item did Vogue throw away?
Chapter 3: How do we celebrate milestones in podcasting?
We had a party. Remember the party?
That's Christmas. That's totally different.
What tea? A little bit at the front, yeah. Poor tea. He's getting his hair cut and he's coming in asking if I want any more off. Yes, mushroom head. Get back in there.
My mother used to keep a lock of my first haircut. And the hair was very blonde and stringy, maybe just didn't age well. Or maybe she was dying it as a child, I don't know. But she used to keep a little box. And then she got tired of it. And I was like, she's like, do you want that? I was like, okay. Then I kept a lock on my own hair because she was bored with it.
Well, do you know what I just threw out? Honestly, three days ago. I don't know whose it was, but it was someone's belly button. Just chucked it out. You know? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. I'm sorry. I did.
Sorry. That took me way too long to connect the fact that it was one of your children's belly buttons. I genuinely was like... What? Who left that there? Probably mine. I'm always leaving things place. It wasn't mine.
I came across your belly button the other day. It's gone very rotten and scabby looking, so I threw it in the bin. Imagine, like, what did I... Did I think that that was going to be a nice sentimental gift to give one of the kids? Like, hang on, kids. Wait, I just... I haven't given you everything. Here's your belly button. Like, scummy. Honestly...
Why not a belly button? We keep their teeth and their hairs and stuff.
I'm not doing any of that bullshit. I'm not keeping anyone's teeth. It's weird. It's weird. My mom kept Alexander's teeth. Only Ray's teeth were kept, obviously, because he's the favorite child. Who? Ray. My mom calls him Ray. Oh, sorry. Ray of sunshine.

Chapter 4: What are our goals for 2025?
You need some sort of panic room that you can just retreat into for the afternoon. And it needs to be soundproof because they can smell you. I've seen them find us in bedrooms because they can smell Vogue through the walls. They can smell the milk or whatever. I don't know if that's still a thing, but they find us. They know where you are. And they're not looking for me. Yeah.
They're not looking for me. Oh, do you know what would be a nice thing to do for the pod? What? Set out your goals for 2025.
I mean, you can't just land that with us now. It's like, it's quarter to 10 on a Friday morning. It's Friday the 13th.
Oh, sorry. I thought you might have had something front of mind. That's fine.
I would like to next week for the main episode, though. I would do. I thought we're finished.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, crap.
I have to think of some. Tell me your goals first then. OK, so I'm saying this for accountability. By the end of 2025, I obviously need a fresh air of stand up. Pinafowl would be written and out in the road, which is fine. That's obviously very doable. And I want to buy a house.
Oh, yeah. I really think that's a good goal.

Chapter 5: What book recommendations do we have?
I bought A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. What? I was like, yeah, that'd be lovely now. Put it the other day. I said, that'd be lovely now over Christmas now, Reed Dickens. I have a little of my hoe.
You want it? Yeah, I'm going to pop down my local fucking WH Smith and grab some Shakespeare as well.
Just going to finish it off with War and Peace just for New Year's. Yeah.
I might read, what's that thing called? Little Sisters. Is that what they're called?
Little Women. Little Women. That'll be a nice one over Christmas. I read Tiny Sisters, that classic. I loved it. Absolutely loved it. I'm actually, do you know what? More accountability on the pod. I'm going to have read Dickens by Christmas 2027. Okay, this is going in the long capsule.
2027.
I don't know what else I want from Christmas. What else should I? I just, you know, I just want a more relaxed life, I think. Slower. I want to be slower paced life. I reckon that's what's coming for me.
Well, like, I agree with you. I think that's necessary. And do you know who can do that for you? Me. Exactly. Namaste. Oh, yeah. Nice.
Thank you.

Chapter 6: How can we improve our reading habits?
Yeah. Nice. I have not exercised in a week. I cannot wait to start exercising again. I'm going to start on Sunday. Why don't you start on Sunday, Joe? No time like the present. Let's start together.
Would we start pre-Christmas? I don't know.
Yeah, we would start pre-Christmas.
If I was you now, I wouldn't just start normally running. I'd be getting like weighted jackets and all and like, I'd be getting like the most expensive garment you can find. Like, and I'd be doing all that instead of just getting out and just getting it, getting it done. Yeah. I'd be like, oh, I can't get going now until I know my HRV and all, you know, blah, blah, blah, you know.
I procrastinate with technology and weighted things basically. How's the Garamond going? Really good actually. What's the sleep? What's the sleep? Do you know what? I'm again learning and growing. Turns out I've much better sleep when I'm not listening to murder documentaries all night. So I'm going to really try. That's another goal.
I'm going to try and stop listening to shit when I fall asleep because I just need to get okay with my own thoughts. Yeah. Now more than you saying no to some work, I need to just get okay with my own thoughts instead of packing my brain with other people's voices all day and all night. It's not always murder now. I shouldn't really say that.
Sometimes it's other shit, but it just... Because your brain is constantly always tuned into that voice. So I use it for company. But I either need to start dating more or just somehow...
figure out how to fall asleep to silence because it's affecting my sleep quality Vogue and suddenly this is important to me what's your sleep is your sleep really like 10 hours a night are you ready for your morning report yes we are ready for Joanne's morning report 52 hours of recovery from what I have no idea I don't know what I'm recovering from yeah I don't know what I'm recovering from.
A bad date? A fucking gym session? I have no idea. It's just constantly telling me I'm recovering from something. It doesn't tell me what. Six hours, 41 sleep. Oh, that's not great. Shorter than ideal, plenty of deep, it says. There you go.

Chapter 7: What literary classics are on our reading list?
Love the pod. You bring me joy every week. Oh, that's pretty tough now.
Well, my gut is saying leave him off. Like, you can't. There's no point. I've done exactly that exact, exactly, exactly thing. I went out. I was going out with someone at the time. I was bawling, crying, leaving him. For the first week, I was on the phone to him every night. And then... you're living, you're just, you're getting on with your new life. You're meeting new people.
It's all hot out there and you're off the beach and you're swimming and you're working and you're meeting new people all the time. And then I didn't want him, didn't want to go out with him anymore. I didn't want him to come out. He was supposed to come out. I told him I didn't want him to come out. He came out anyway. Oh God. Through his own work. And I was, I'm going to say allergic.
I was like, oh God. I know. And he was like, are you not even going to meet me? Are you not even going to meet me? And I'm sure I'd had 19 boyfriends since I'd seen him last. And then I did go to him. I've actually, I don't know if this is the right story to tell because I did go to meet him and then fell in love with him again. And then he moved, he stayed in Australia with me.
And I moved out from the girls and moved in with him. And then we came home to Ireland together and broke up anyway. My point is, I'm very much out of sight, out of mind.
Yeah.
If someone operates like that, you just have to accept it and be like, okay, the chances are when people are young, when they travel, they have a whole different lifestyle. They're meeting new people all the time. That's just what happens. They move on. They move into a different way of thinking. Yeah.
Yeah, I probably wouldn't be chasing somebody across the world if they don't want you to go out.
You have to leave them.
